Default big brakes and small wheels

Are there any 16" wheels that will fit over 332mm rotors and StopTech or Brembo calipers?

None. Clearance with a 17" wheel is only 2-3mm

Default If I had them, I'd just try it out ;)

I'm wondering if a brake upgrade will work with my current winter wheels... 16" TT Replica

Default ditto with Brembo/S8 calipers - no room

Even the wrong wheel weights in the wrong position will hit the S8 calipers with 17" wheels
